I think I'd like to see a person to add an element of stronger (no pun intended) interest. - you've set the stage well

wonderful exposure -- I think I'd like to see more of the magnet since it's "part" of the effect.

Nice repeating pattern and interesting sky.

nicely lit - your choice here moves this from just another shot to a statement and a reflection of your pov.

Rough 'ol Ride

This is soo close to great (from very good) -- the missing factor is DOF - the linen backdrop is too crisp and becomes an element in the shot. That makes a competition for my attention from the wheel (an interesting one!). The very front edge of the wheel (by the nut and white paint) is just oof (unfortuneattely right by the white paint that draws extra attention to it) I offer these comments, of course, IMHO.

The Workshop Pulley

nicely composed as you've laid out many elements but by keeping the colors all blacks and grays, the elements compliment each other (where they might be fighting for attention otherwise) The wheel gets a litt extra color to help it be the main element. One of my favorites this challenge

Nostalgie

I think this technique is low contrast? I think it's a good choice as it's refreshingly different. Your pov is exceptionally artistic as well. One of my favorites this challenge
